I really felt it in SF. Only one toy hit the floor, however.

I felt it here in SF, but it was nothing compared to the Loma Prieta (sp?) quake we had some years ago.

I live in San Jose - got home from S7 to find my detolf cases were open with RxH's, Secret Base, Mavs, Rangeas's, risers, and various other vinyls, strewn out all over the floors - tops shelves completely empty - as far as I can tell nothing really damaged/paint or figures otherwise....keeping stuff out of cases for the next 72 hours in case of another shock.

my whole building was shaking in the mission district, here in S.F. my girlfriend two blocks away didn't feel it. i don't know how that works. I've been in California a year now and this is the first one I've noticed. it's been an exciting day.

it could be caused by a big tip with the recent increase in Real Head figures landing in LA.

On the east coast, people get freaked out over snowstorms which obviously doesn't compare to earthquakes and fires.
